Description

An awkward silence after feelings that were too loud. When just recently they were laughing breathlessly, and now even a phone call seems like an intrusion. Everything sounds muffled - even the piano, which used to sing of closeness, now responds with empty chords. Love here is not a dramatic storm, but a quiet echo of what was left unsaid.

In this song, silence speaks louder than words, and every pause is like a confession, only without witnesses. A little resentment, a little tenderness, and a lot of air between two people who once shared one instrument, but now cannot even share the silence.

Lyrics and translation

Original

Even now I don't know when you let go

When it slipped away

At my house, four hands at the piano

You sure know how to play

I never asked for love, no diamond ring

You let yourself in

And you weren't allowed

To come around and throw my heart about

To turn me on just to turn me down

And everything's unspoken now

I'm out, the silence is so loud

A month ago, you had me under covers

Butterflies in bed

No, I won't phone, 'cause we went straight to lovers

So, we can't even talk as friends

I never asked for love, no diamond ring

You let yourself in

And you weren't allowed

To come around and throw my heart about

To turn me on just to turn me down

And everything's unspoken now

I'm out, the silence is so loud

The silence is so loud

The silence is so loud

And everything's unspoken now

I'm out, silence is so loud

Here I am, two hands at the piano

The one I let you play

I understand if you changed your mind about me

But all you had to do was say
